Chapter 156 (2/2)

Qi Qiqi turned pale with fright. Such an injury can hardly be called a minor injury.

“Little Sister Shui, you're hurt!”

Shui Yun'er glanced at the injury and pressed it with a hand to slow down the bleeding. She gasped, probably due to the pain that came with touching the wound.

“It looks like I'm not nimble enough…”

With great effort, Shui Yun'er showed a wry smiled. Qi Qiqi shook her head vigorously immediately after.

“No, it's all my fault!”

The wound must have arisen when Shui Yun'er pushed her away. Unable to evade in time, she was scratched by the G.o.d Eye Eagle's talons.

Really, how can I get distracted in this situation? Qi Qiqi secretly condemned her carelessness that led to Shui Yun'er being hurt. Although she and Shui Yun'er are outside the battlefield and are hidden in the dense forest, but that doesn't mean they can lower their guard. With their sharp senses, it's not surprising for martial demons to discover them. The G.o.d Eye Eagle eyeing them from above is the best evidence.

“Let's hurry up and treat it!”

“We can't, we still have a naughty bird above us.”

Shui Yun'er stopped Qi Qiqi, who was trying to tear off her sleeves and bandaged her arm. She deliberately used a mischievous and relaxed tone to ease Qi Qiqi's remorse.

Since the threat from above is still unresolved, it is indeed not a good time to bandage.

“I got it, let's do it…”

Her tone is dull.

There is a dejected expression on Qi Qiqi's face. If she could, she would like to avoid a confrontation. But forced by the situation, she can't help it. Shui Yun'er next to her is still bleeding. What's more, she knows that this kindness of her is superfluous, and it will eventually harm herself and others.

“Well, there is no other way.”

She seems to say it to herself.

Then Qi Qiqi closed her eyes and lifted Sky Asunder.

Sky Asunder's scabbard was destroyed earlier in the battle with Chihen, The magic lines on the exposed dark gray sword body are s.h.i.+ning with dazzling brilliance.

When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were bright red like fire, as if they were really on fire — there is some kind of light spiraling deep in her eyes.

“Li [1] is fire. Fire sweep from the south! Gather, congeal, turn into arrows, and destroy my enemies –”

Countless flame tongues appeared out of thin air and gathered at the tip of the sword. With Sky Asunder as the brush, fire as the ink, Qi Qiqi drew in front of her. An arc of fire trailed behind Sky Asunder's tip, which is s.h.i.+ning with the light of fire.

“– Flying Flames!”

The order has been issued.

When the spell model was activated, the arc of fire shook unnaturally, split into several flame arrows, and shot out at once. To be honest, this is the first time that Qi Qiqi is using “Flying Flames”. But she unexpectedly succeeded.

With red light trailing behind, “Flying Flames” approaching the G.o.d Eye Eagle hovering in the sky from several directions.

The G.o.d Eye Eagle displayed nimble movement, that can hardly be a.s.sociated with its huge body, and evaded Flying Flames. It screeched, turned, and dove towards Qi Qiqi.

Qi Qiqi has a.s.sumed a stance, ready to fight back, when a sphere of water suddenly intervened and hit the raptor attacking from above.

This is a spell that Shui Yun'er cast.

Water splashed about.

Hit by sphere of water, the G.o.d Eye Eagle cried in pain. It was drenched by water in a flash. Swaying, it landed far away. Once its feathers are wet, a bird won't be able to fly due to the weight gain. Under these circ.u.mstances, landing right away is a wise choice. It seems that the G.o.d Eye Eagle isn't stupid.

The threat has been dispelled.

While holding Sky Asunder in a reverse-grip and guarding against martial demons that might have possibly been attracted by the fight just now, Qi Qiqi walked up to beside Shui Yun'er and supported her.

“We shouldn't stay here any longer. The fight just now might have attracted the attention of other martial demons.”

“Okay. Anyway, I'm not sure if I can hit a G.o.d Eye Eagle again.”

Shui Yun'er smiled wryly again and joked.

“Really, I really don't know what to tell you. Are you still in the mood to make jokes?”

Qi Qiqi let out a sigh.
